Bonus is the customer service has always been the best. Really friendly and helpful staff in a cute and cosy location.
Didn’t try the toastie.
I left my wallet down the road on Friday
Where a person found and kept it for me safe.
They passed it into these kind people’s hands,
Like a leather baton in a relay race
Where the finish line is me smiling.
Thanks and thumbs up from a scatterbrain student;
They’d be a lot less happy now if not for places
Where kindness is common.
:~)
The toasties were yum. Joe definitely won this one with his Dude Ja sourdough toastie - it was delicious. I opted for something a bit smaller with the Beanie Toastie. I was a bit confused about how the menu stated "house made beans", but then saw an empty store bought baked bean tin in the bin 😬 Nevertheless, it was tasty, but really nothing to shout about.
The service was a bit strange. When we ordered the toasties, we were told they would be around 10 minutes as they are made fresh (obviously this is fine, we expect them to be fresh), but were made to feel like it was a bit of an inconvenience 🤔
This is definitely a take away spot. There wasn't really much room to sit down as they are lacking storage and had boxes under the benches. The door is left open, so on a cold November day, it wasn't the most comfortable breakfast!
Definitely order one of their sourdough toasties and a drink, but to go. The value for money is VERY good. £1.90 for a cup of tea in London - yes please.
The order:
Beanie Toastie (house beans, applewood smoked cheddar) - £4.90
Dude Ja (nduja, smoked cheese, peppers, rocket, spring onion) - £7.00
Flat White - £2.30
Tea - £1.90

I used to get my coffee from “Taylor Street” (best in London), and I really rated the coffee I had from here. They also offer a select range of alternative milks.
The “FRENCHIE” Toasty I ordered was richly flavored, and I was NOT disappointed.
This is a small place which punches above its size, and that is solely due to the dedication of the staff.
They didn’t have the mint iced latte I was looking for thus went for the nutty one!
It was hot, so really needed a yum latte!
Maybe I expected a lot from the place. The latte tasted a little bland and salty for some reason as if the almond milk had gone bad!
The serving is very small for 3.50£ and I also took a lemonade which I tht would be a freshly prepared thing but instead was a small store bought can which was over priced too and extremely sweet!
The place is known for toasties, which unfortunately I didn’t try but the coffee was really sad!
It was first iced latte of the season and certainly a bad start!
Food is really important to me and after spending the amount I tht I should have just gone some place else.
But you can never know about it unless you try so good learning for future!
